What Baking Powder Shall We use.

This plain question comes home to every
housekeeper. We all desire pure and whole
some food, and this cannot be had with the
use of impure poisonous baking powder
There can be no longer question TIA all the
cheaper, lower grades of baking powders con-
tain either alum, lime or phosphate acid. AS
10th as we may be to admit so much against
what may have been some OF our household
gods, there can be no gainsaying the unani-
NOUS testimony of the official chemists. Indeed
analysis seem to find no baking powder entire
" free from some one of these Objectionable in
ingredients except the Royal, and that they re-
mort as chemically pure. We find some of the
Baking Powders advertised pure, to contain,
under the tests of Chandler, Habirshaw and
others, nearly twelve per cent of lime, while
others, are made from alum with no cream OF
tartar. This, we presume accounts for their
lack of levening powder sometimes COM
planned of by the cook, and for the bitter taste
found in the biscuits so frequently complained
of by ourselves.
But aside from The interiority of the work
done by these powders, the psychologists assure
us that lime and alum taken into the system
in such quantities as this are injurious. They
are not decomposed by heat or dissolved IN
mixing or baking. They go with the bread,
therefore, into the somach, where their physl-
illogical effects are indigestion, dyspepsia, or
worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do these
cheap baking powder makers use these things?
Alum is three cents pound, lime still cheaper
Wnll6 CTedUl Oh COoIo NV VI
The reasons for the chemical purity Of the
Royal Baking Powder were recently given in
the New York Times in interesting descrip-
ton of new method for refnin argols, or
crude cream of tartar. 1t seems that only un :
der this process that cream of tartar can be
freed from the lime natural to to it and rend-
cred chemically pure; that the patents and
plant for this cost the Royal Saking Powder
| Company about half a million dollars, and
that they contain exclusive control of the
| rights.
| Prof McMurtrie, late chief chemist of the
| Department of Agriculture at Washington, d.
| c., in the interest of commerce, made an ex-
animation of this process, and reported upon
the results attained in the refined cream of tar
tar. The following extract from his report
would seem to answer the question repeated at
the head of this article, and which is so fire.
quently propounded by the housekeeper:
II have examined the cream Of tartar use
by the Royal Baking Powder Company in the
manufacture of their baking powder, and find
it to be perfectly pure, and free from lime in
any form. The chemical tests to WHICH l have
submitted the Royal Baking Powder prove i
perfectly healthful. and free from any deleter
| ious substance"
